Chapter 683: Because they are surnamed Li, your mother-in-law is surnamed Tong

Li Ye had experienced Xia Yue's mentality in his previous life.

At that time, he had just stepped into society and, because of a certain incident, went to borrow two hundred thousand from a relative.

At that time, he felt that two or three hundred thousand wasn't "big money." No matter what, he was an excellent young man who graduated from a second-tier university, with a bright future ahead. Paying back a debt of two hundred thousand wasn't a matter of two or three years?

But the relative didn't lend him two hundred thousand, only giving him ten thousand, and saying "pay it back when you have money."

At that time, Li Ye felt insulted, but after he officially started working and earning money, he knew that the ten thousand yuan from his relative was worth his gratitude for a lifetime.

This money is spent in tens of thousands, but saving it is damn measured in cents!

When Li Ye started saving money cent by cent, he knew that money was really damn hard to earn.

Many children who were the same as Li Ye all let out helpless sighs.

【When I was in school, my mom gave me fifteen hundred a month, but I've been working for five years and can't give my mom five hundred a month.】

Therefore, twenty thousand really isn't a small amount of money. If you have a deposit of twenty thousand in your hand, you will have a completely different mental outlook.

This standard actually corresponds to the cruel reality that ordinary people must face.

And the eighteen thousand pounds in '87 was much more than the two hundred thousand in '17.

So Wu Juying and Li Zhongfa looked at each other, and then said: "But we don't have that much foreign exchange!"

Xia Yue pursed her lips and said with a bitter smile: "Li Ye's younger sister, Li Ying, can be sent to Hong Kong to study so easily. How come you say there is no foreign exchange now?"

【Because they are surnamed Li, your mother-in-law is surnamed Tong.】

Li Ye didn't have the patience to listen to Xia Yue anymore and asked directly: "Why do you think going abroad is a good way out? If you really can't stay in Qingshui County, then going south to Pengcheng is also a good choice."

Xia Yue looked at Li Ye and said with a smile: "Can Pengcheng compare with Britain? If Pengcheng is very good, then why didn't your younger sister Li Ying go to Pengcheng to study but went to Hong Kong?"

【Because her mother wants to give birth to a younger brother for me to play with.】

Li Ye said faintly: "As far as I know, the average annual salary of locals in Britain is less than ten thousand pounds. You only heard people talk about the wealth overseas, but you didn't hear people talk about the bitterness overseas, so you can't pay back the money at all."

"..."

Xia Yue froze for a moment, as if she were provoked, and said: "Why do you say I can't pay back the money?"

"I just saw a friend the day before yesterday. She went to Britain to study for only three years and bought a house in the city center of London, with a market value of over one hundred thousand pounds."

"I ask myself that I am not worse than her. Is it possible that I can't earn ten thousand pounds a year?"

【That friend of yours is Lu Jingyao, right? Why don't you ask her where her money came from?】

Li Ye asked faintly: "A friend? Which friend of yours?"

Xia Yue didn't answer, just turned her head and stopped looking at Li Ye.

But Li Ye asked with a cold smile: "Are you really sure she is your friend?"

If you treat Lu Jingyao as a friend, does Lu Jingyao treat you as a friend? If she treats you as a friend, why didn't she pay the eighteen thousand pounds for you? If it really doesn't work, nine thousand pounds for the two of you would be fine, right?

"She is of course my friend, my friend forever!"

Xia Yue stiffened her neck and said excitedly: "I came to talk to Grandma and Grandpa about things today. Why do you always interrupt, Li Ye? Don't you know this is very impolite?"

"Because I have the final say in this matter."

Li Ye said faintly: "If that friend of yours is Lu Jingyao, then you can go and ask her. In this family, who has the ability to send people abroad to study."

Lu Jingyao already knew that Li Ye and Watching Wen Leyu were the original authors of *A Song of Ice and Fire*, so of course she knew Li Ye's strength. So if Lu Jingyao was friends with Xia Yue, she should have awakened Xia Yue that in this family, who was the one who couldn't be offended the most.

Xia Yue looked at Li Ye in a daze and hadn't recovered yet when she heard Li Ye say sharply again: "Then you go and ask your mother-in-law what kind of broken things she did back then, and ask her why I should help her son and daughter-in-law go abroad to study."

"..."

Xia Yue was completely dumbfounded.

She could use Tong Mingyue's dead parents to morally kidnap Li Zhongfa and Wu Juying, but she couldn't kidnap Li Ye!

If she knew that Tong Mingyue had reported Fu Guiru back then, leading to the separation of mother and son for more than a decade, she would have died rather than come to the door today.

Li Ye looked at the dumbfounded Xia Yue and smiled again: "Actually, you didn't communicate with your mother-in-law when you came today, right? You acted on your own, right?"

If Xia Yue had communicated with her mother-in-law, she wouldn't have brought humiliation upon herself.

On the afternoon of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Li Ye and Watching Wen Leyu left Qingshui County again and went to the provincial capital to take the train back to the capital.

Watching Wen Leyu followed the traditional rules to Qingshui County for the New Year, so Li Ye also had to follow the rules and go to his mother-in-law's house on the second day of the Lunar New Year, right?

The train from Shanghai to the capital would stop at the Dongshan provincial capital station in the afternoon and arrive at the capital railway station the next morning. So if the young couple took a sleeper, it wouldn't delay things much.

Perhaps because it was the first day of the Lunar New Year, the provincial capital railway station, which was usually crowded, was deserted today. Li Ye and Watching Wen Leyu got on the platform and found that there were only a few dozen passengers in total.

Watching Wen Leyu suddenly poked Li Ye and gestured forward with her chin.

Li Ye followed his little wife's gaze and saw two fashionable women, one of whom was holding a child.

The one holding the child was Gao Xiaoyan, who had once knelt at Li Ye's door, and the other was Lu Jingyao, who was Xia Yue's "friend"!

Lu Jingyao and Gao Xiaoyan also saw Li Ye. Gao Xiaoyan hesitated for a moment, but still handed the child to Lu Jingyao and walked over with a smile.

If it weren't for Li Ye, she would have been abandoned by Lu Zixue, and she wouldn't be like she was now, stepping out of the country to see the vast world outside.

Just look at her dress, and you know her life is going well now.

So she was full of gratitude to Li Ye. After walking to him, she asked with a smile: "Brother Li, are you going back to the capital?"

Li Ye nodded: "Right, are you going back to Britain? It's not easy to come back once, why not stay in your hometown for a few more days?"

Gao Xiaoyan shook her head and smiled: "We are going to the capital to visit a friend first, and then we will return to Britain. I'm actually here to pick up the child this time. Staying in my hometown or not makes no difference."

Li Ye looked at the child in Lu Jingyao's arms and asked: "Your son is not even two years old, right? Are your father-in-law and mother-in-law willing to let you take him away?"

Gao Xiaoyan smiled awkwardly, then said frankly: "Divorced. He doesn't like me, and I don't want to pester him. Divorcing is good for everyone."

Li Ye looked at Gao Xiaoyan in surprise, then at Lu Jingyao, feeling puzzled in his heart, but feeling he shouldn't ask too much.

But Gao Xiaoyan said with a smile: "Although Lu Zixue and I divorced, my sister-in-law takes good care of me. I miss the child over there, so she immediately came back with me. If it weren't for her speaking up, I wouldn't have been able to take the child away!"

"She told me that she would ensure that the child and I have no worries about food and clothing, but I'm not a parasite. When I graduate from university, I'll find a job myself."

Li Ye nodded slowly. Lu Jingyao, this person, is hateful in some things, but she is not entirely a bad person.

"The train is about to leave. We're leaving, Brother Li."

Seeing the train arrive at the station, Gao Xiaoyan said goodbye to Li Ye with a smile. The girl who once wanted to seek death was now cheerful.

Li Ye suddenly asked: "By the way, which university are you in in Britain? Is it easy to get into?"

Gao Xiaoyan said without thinking: "Hey, Minbayeji University, it's very easy to get into."

Oh~

Li Ye finally understood.

Xia Yue's so-called admission to a British university turned out to be this situation.
